Frequent Questions

What brand boards can I use on the wave? : As far as bodyboards you can use a board from WCB, Flow Daily, Carbon, Cartel, or Flow Rider on the wave. For stand up riding you can use WaveLoch, FlowRider, Ash, Mak, or WCB. Regardless of brand, any board with significant damage that could in turn damage the wave surface will not be permitted.

What am I allowed to wear on the wave? : First and foremost proper bathing attire is required. Jewelry is not permitted on the wave as it can cause physical harm not only to you but also the wave surface.

Hats and plastic/rubber goggles are permitted. Shoes are not permitted on the wave.

How does the session work? : During a Ride All Night special there is no limit to the number of guests. Each guest has a number on their wristband that they will show to the lifeguard. The lifeguard will then assist in determining which rider you will follow to ensure everyone gets the same number of rides. Ride times depend on the amount of riders but range from 45 seconds to 1 minute. The time starts when you enter the ride. If you fall while you still have time you can reenter the wave until it is up. Everyone is a different skill level so regardless of if you fall or do not, everyone will get the same amount of time to ride.
